In the capital of H Country, four great families each hold sway over their own territory. A generation of outstanding young talents, including Zi Niannning, Xia Xunfeng, Su Yunqi, and Huo Jingbai, burst onto the scene amid a turbulent and treacherous struggle for power.
With their families' missions on their shoulders and the safety of their country resting on them, they are forced to shed their youthful naivety and take on the responsibility of protecting H Country. Their path ahead is beset with thorns and surrounded by schemes; life-and-death partings are commonplace. The weight of duty to their families and country pulls against the bonds of love, making them waver time and again, yet each time they grit their teeth and stand firm.
Amid layers of fog and dangers lurking everywhere, they stand side by side and face their enemies as one, risking their lives with the fiery courage of youth. They protect their beloved through flashing blades and stay together through storms of blood and violence. Their arduous journey blooms with flowers thanks to their sincere love. The spirit of youth intertwines with their duty to family and country, and in time, their fates and the future of H Country will find their final answer.
Zi Nianning: Perhaps there was never a choice. Fortunately, I've had you by my side all along.
Xia Xunfeng: You be the sharpest blade of your family, and I'll be the toughest bullet in your gun.
Su Yunqi: As a child of a great family, I have pride etched into my very bones.
Huo Jingbai: Yes. You will always be the one and only source of pride in my heart.
Head of the Family: The young must pursue their own path.
Love becomes armor, passion protects our homeland. The spirits of the fallen endure, and true love never fades.
My eyes welled up with tears while watching it 😢
